Enabling FTPs

Learn about enabling FTP access to Couchdrop

Unlike SFTP, FTP is disabled by default in Couchdrop. This is because FTP is comparitively buggy and insecure and so we do not recommend using it where there are other options.

Enabling FTPs

To enable FTPs access, you must be an administrator or the owner in Couchdrop.

• Login to Couchdrop's web app

• Click SFTP Server

• Click FTP Connectivity

• Click Enable FTP

This setting will activate immediately.

Users will need to be authorised to access Couchdrop via FTP
